Last year I saw a weather channel anchorman standing in a hurricane chained to a pole holding one of these things up as palm trees and cars flew by. As his hair was being ripped out and his eyelids folded back over he screamed, " Yep 110 mph. Right then I knew I had to have a Kestral 4500. This thing is a ticket to adventure. Look what you can do with it: It measures: wind speed, crosswind, headwind, tailwind, altitude, heat stress, humidity and air, water and snow temperature. Not only that it's indestructible and floats in case your pole gets ripped out of the ground and you wind up in the water. Plus it will log all your important data in case you don't survive__ "Ah there is his Kestral 4500 floating over there. Let's see what happened."
